Elder Carson Bennett - Roseville California Mission

  Hello everybody, welcome back to another week of Elder Bennett shenanigans. Now, I will admit I did not do very well at writing my email this week. So we are going to keep this one short and sweet because that's better than long and boring. This week was pretty awesome. It started out with just a normal PD on Monday with nothing too exciting happening. And then early Tuesday morning, we drove up to Redding to go do social media filming for an awesome music video we have coming out here soon. It was super fun to see all the missionaries in reading and a lot of them I'm besties with. After our whole filming shenanigans, we drove up to Mount Shasta. We did a video for Elder Kahaialii. The sunset was super pretty, we continue to drive up the mountain to look at more awesome places. As we were filming other k, it was super cold. It was like 45° and none of us came prepared for the cold, so all we had were our blankets in the van. So I grabbed my minky blanket and cuddled in it to ...

  Howdy all you wonderful people, hope you had an awesome week. Mine was an adventure, so sit back and grab a cold Dr. Pepper and enjoy this week's shenanigans.  So to get started, let's start on monday. So we went shopping and did the weekly typical p-day stuff. We went to the guitar store so I could get a new E string for my guitar, since the last one went snap! So I got a new string, and then we went to the church. I called my mom, and chatted for a bit. I then played some games with some other missionaries. We then left and went to our WML house, Brother Bell! We played some board games, and I strung my guitar string back up, and got it tuned. Brother Bell made us tacos, and they were pretty premium. We even had a competition on who could eat more tacos. I only got 7 down, which isn’t a lot but I aint a very big guy. We then moved a couch for him and a piano, since he was getting a newer couch. We then went home and had dinner. I was playing the guitar, and I tuned it in a...

Monday- just pday with nothing crazy happening.  Tuesday- We were up in grass valley all day doing 3 video shoots. It was super fun and super pretty. We came home and went to dinner. We then edited some videos and then went to bed.  Wednesday- 10/9, we started out the wonderful transfer day with helping the other elders pack and move out. I then cleaned the apartment, and moved some things around. We then went to the church and hung out for hours so we could do the pictures for all the new missionaries. But dont stress, I was busy talking to other missionaries so it was fine. We did pictures, then a super lit member picked us up and took us to a really good Indian restaurant. Best part was that it was an all you can eat buffet, so it was amazing. We then came home and went to bed. Now the rest of this email is going to be the highs and lows of the week. So please hold as I tell you. Highs- We didn't die.  Made some super good contacts. We did some tracting and met a super...

Howdy y'all, welcome back to another recap of my awesome adventures. This week went by really fast, we did an emergency trip to Redding, and we had General Conference (Which was awesome) and we even got transfer boards. So sit back, grab your Dr. Pepper, and enjoy this email.  So on Monday 9/30, we had our p-day. So we did our shopping and the weekly cleaning tasks. We then went to the Roseville stake center and hung out. I played the piano and some card games with other missionaries. I also called my family, which is always good. Then when p-day ended, we went home and had some dinner. Then we did some more video editing and then called it a night. On Tuesday 10/1- I started out the day with some fire breakfast burritos. Then we got in the car and drove to a small town called Colussa. Which is about 1.5 hours north west of Roseville. We went and met up with the Social Media Hermanas, and filmed a Jalapeños for Jesus episode. It was pretty fun, we then went to a super good Mexican ...
